Figs are one of the sweetest fruits. Marinated in juice, they produce a dish of elegant simplicity. Although this recipe takes only a few minutes to prepare, it needs to marinate for at least 8 hours for the flavors to develop.

COMBINE FIGS, raisins and apple juice in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for just 1 minute. Remove from heat and add lemon juice.

Transfer to a bowl and let cool. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours before serving.
